trump recently tweeted for his "keyboard warriors" to get to work. There since seems

to be more shit spewing forth from his cult. His followers are hell bent on "owning the libs" & for "lib tears".

We're older & my hubby broke the "color barrier" back when he entered his lifelong career in the '60's. He had to endure a lot from the good old boys, & he had to work a little harder and wiser. So it hurt him up when a couple of his trump loving relatives attacked my hubby as being a racist for saying the slightest thing about trump on his social media. My hubby for the most part stays away from politics when on facebook for family peace, so I'm sure whatever he said was mild. Anyway since it hurt him, it hurt me.

I have a feeling there's going to be a whole a lot more of this everywhere on the internet.

It will be positively toxic! Ass Face is already panicky. It will get worse.

I'm so sorry your husband had to endure that.

is important to him: the generations, seeking advice from elders, celebrating milestones, reasoned discussion.

This is a new kind of public attack that seems to come from trump's sick deployment of his "keyboard warriors".

10. Yes, thank you. This is new, in-your-face disrespect that stems from trumps "call".

The good news is that these relatives are being called out for their stupidity by other "seniors" in the family. and some of the juniors too.

They re-opened the politics forum that had to be closed in 2016. Not going so well.

the last several days.

I'll wait for the science.

Yes, you are correct. It does seem to be picking up to almost a fevered pitch. They're really desperate to get us out there to "Die for the Dow".
